  • Here's a few highlights and samples from my Premium Channel. If you want to join the Premium Channel, click: creativeengineering.bigcartel...
    In this reel, you'll get a peek at our 1981 recording session to record "Light My Fire when we were all still so young. You'll see me, quite a bit older, packing up a set of plush dolls for a loyal supporter, get a preview of the upcoming Showbiz Pizza Place VR Simulator, see a bit of the old news stories and clips of The Wolf Pack 5 and early Rock-afire shows at high video quality, get a peek inside the new CEI Museum, watch my passion infused dog showing her Frisbee skills, visit the "Bowels of Creative Engineering: as it is nearly cleaned out, marking the end of an era, see the remaining costumes and character masks as the costume shop is cleared out, watch me cook the last Hydrillium-fired steak at the Jefferson Building, and get a really good view of The Anti-Gravity Freedom Machine's "first and last stand".
    And while you are enjoying a few minutes of this content, just think of the deep dive my Premium Members are getting through their membership. If you're a loyal supporter, you can help the Rock-afire reach its next plateau by joining us and supporting my work for about the cost of a couple cups of coffee a month. And, while getting the full videos is already well worth it, just think about the plans I have for the future of the Premium Channel. This is your front row seat to watch and participate in the Rock-afire Explosion's revival as we begin our next chapter.

    You know… I watch all your vids, and always find ways to bring up Showbiz Pizza and Chuck E Cheese memories with my local pals…. But never took a moment to say:
    Thank you for all of your hard work and devotion to these characters and songs over the years. As some random 43 year old guy in NJ, who has wonderful memories of my local Rock-A-Fire (and Colorado locations too when visiting my contains as a kid), I really just wanted to share my gratitude. I have the utmost respect for those who spend the vast majority of their lives devoting time, love, passion, and to developing skill to create magic for the rest of us.

    Saying the new simulation might get bigger than the fnaf franchise is some real big talk,
    Though with the rat tossing their shows out, I'm sure it will get quite popular amongst folk who want to see animatronics perform, Even if it is all digital.
    Perhaps placing advertisements online when the simulation comes out could boost the popularity.

      First, I'll have to correct you on the use of the word, "literally". I think you mean "figuratively". And, second, we did in fact "crush" Chick E. Cheese by all metrics. Not only has public opinion born out the "crushing", indeed, CEC went bankrupt in 1984, and my company, Showbiz acquired their assets, the assets of "Crushed" Chuck E. Cheese. We then propped the dead rat back up to squeeze any left over juice out of it, at which point, I said "I'm out. Have fun". I took my band out of the pizza dive and saved it in its originally designed state for future generations to enjoy. Now, you can still see the Rock-afire in all its glory, but the Chuck E. Cheese characters which were riding on top of my mechanisms for decades have been destroyed with no animatronics remaining. I am still producing new RAE shows for fans and maintaining their shows for them. What in this scenario looks like a "backfire" to our original intent to "crush Chuck E Cheese" and would you like to put it to a vote as to who crushed who?
